Hardware Savings
 
„
The Zero Client is the ideal front-end device for environments such as 
government, banks, call centers and universities. It acts as a gateway to 
a desktop virtualization environment and is made highly cost-effective 
through minimized use of components. There is no processor, integrated 
storage or moving parts, dramatically reducing costs in comparison 
to a traditional PC. Furthermore, the Zero Client is designed to help 
businesses save costs throughout its lifetime. Desktop Virtualization 
helps this happen.
 
Desktop virtualization
 
„
With desktop virtualization, all software, drivers and the operating 
system are stored on servers, rather than having to be installed on 
every user’s machine. This means that large numbers of users can be 
administered centrally, with all user information and data maintained in 
the data center. This dramatically reduces the time and costs necessary 
for administering a large infrastructure. The user’s environment remains 
unchanged, they get the same experience as using a normal PC. The IT 
manager, however, experiences much greater efficiency. For example, 
if new software is required for 50 users, the IT manager only needs to 
install the software once centrally and then activate it for the various 
virtual machines, rather than having to install it on multiple machines 
on an individual basis. Hence, the desktop virtualization model allows 
businesses to achieve significant savings of both time and money when 
managing their IT infrastructure.
 
Roaming
 
„
In a desktop virtualization environment, all user data is stored centrally. 
With the Zero Client acting simply as a gateway, it is possible for a user 
to access his desktop environment from any networked Zero Client. What 
is more, because the centralized virtual machine is always on, the user 
can instantly start from where they were previously, without having to 
wait for a machine to start. This gives a company incredible flexibility 
with their workforce, as users do not have to transport a PC with them 
should they change location. With the appropriate network speed 
and structure, a user can even move to another part of the country 
and maintain access to their desktop. The instant connection and 
resumption capability also helps to increase productivity. 
 
Roll-outs
 
„
The Zero Client itself requires no software installation and virtually no 
setup. If all user information is already prepared, it is simply a case of 
the Zero Client making the connection to the desktop virtualization 
server and then the user is ready to go in minutes. For a large number 
of Zero Clients this can reduce the time required for a roll-out from 
weeks to days. The user benefits from the minimum downtime when 
getting a new device, the company gains from the huge increase in 
productivity this brings.
 
Maintenance
 
„
Zero Clients are fundamentally more reliable than a standard PC. With 
no moving parts, no storage and no software, they are very unlikely 
to suffer mechanical failure and cannot be corrupted by viruses or 
failed installations. Any faults that develop with the user’s desktop 
environment can be quickly solved at the server backend, eliminating 
the high costs associated with service call outs. In the unlikely event 
of hardware failure, the user does not have to wait for a repair as the 
Zero Client can be replaced with a functioning device within minutes, 
allowing the user to resume exactly where they left off. The massive 
reduction in downtime helps keep a business running at optimum 
efficiency.
 
Lifecycle
 
„
Hardware redundancy represents a major expense for companies, a 
substantial chunk of workload for IT managers and a frustration for 
users. With a Zero Client based solution, companies can avoid the 
costs of replacing hardware, IT managers no longer have to organize 
hardware refreshes and the user has a device that always performs 
optimally. This is because the Zero Client has no effect on the speed 
and responsiveness of the user’s desktop environment. Should more 
performance be needed, it is simply a case of upgrading the server 
backend, which can be carried out much more easily than upgrading 
hundreds of individual PCs. A Zero Client can hence last much longer 
than a PC because it will keep functioning with an evolving desktop 
environment.
